The Theater Arts Option offers a challenging course of study for both the novice student and experienced theater artist. Through a combination of classroom training, production experience opportunities, and community service outreach, NVCC theater students develop a definite set of skills, knowledge, and values that lead to growth as individuals, artists, and future theater professionals. Ultimately, the NVCC theater program strives to develop the creative and intellectual potential in both arts and non-arts majors at the college. Graduate employment may include assistantships as directors, stage managers, theater technicians, box office managers, marketing coordinators, sound engineers, lighting assistants, or acting interns.
